Expert Cruise Review: Mississippi River Boat Cruises
Mississippi River Boat Cruise on the Lower Mississippi from Memphis to New Orleans in a Solo Cabin…
As a long-time solo traveler, people often ask me if I get lonely or feel afraid traveling alone. Nope and nope. I do enjoy being with family and friends, but I also like alone-time to journey to fascinating destinations. River Cruise ships seem to offer the best of both worlds….
When I walked into the ship’s dining room for my first lunch, a woman seated at a window table asked if I was traveling alone. When I answered that I was, she invited me to dine with her. Two other women quickly joined us and the three became regular dining partners. Being a solo cruiser meant I had the freedom to enjoy the company of others and the freedom to be alone when I wanted to be.
